 Re: shirt adhesive alternative
I have a question on spray adhesives. I bought printers brand Ulano's heat resistance spray adhesive. I use a light mist on the platen and put the shirt on. Very good so far as holding. I will flash cure, say a white ink. Then I do a partial final cure. But the shirt get real difficult to peel off now.
When the shirt is warm it is very sticky. I finally get it off and do a final cure on another station with the flash cure unit. But now the inking platen cools and it is not sticky anymore. I have to re-spray and start over with the same issues.
Should I just try to re-heat the inking platen w/o a shirt and see if it gets tacky again? I must be doing something wrong.
I use to use a repositionable spray adhesive from an art supply store and it seemed better. It did not dry out as fast and not too hard to remove the shirts - never stuck to the shirt either. Maybe I need to go back to that?? |
